I think he's the fattest obstruction since Taft.

[–]earthboundsounds 50 ポイント51 ポイント  (0子コメント)

A wild Taft reference appears!

[–]newocean 17 ポイント18 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Him bitching about obstruction from anyone is laughable at this point.

    I have never seen a person come up with more things to complain about than Donald Trump.

    Edit: Here is his tweet calling Democrats obstructionist

    [–]Gsteel11 342 ポイント343 ポイント  (63子コメント)

    Thats all he has ever done is complain. Trump is like that person you know that always complains about everything.

    [–]barawo33 195 ポイント196 ポイント  (37子コメント)

    Plus they complain about the stuff that they can change but don't and somehow it's everyone else's fault.

    [–]jqbandit6 109 ポイント110 ポイント  (31子コメント)

    It's completely astonishing. They have the power to do practically anything they want, and they still can't figure out how to do it. And they blame us for this.

    Growing up in a Republican household, it took years but was still very clear to even a kid that the party of personal responsibility was becoming the part of blame denial. At this point the fact that people think that the Confederate Republicans are still conservative completely blows my mind.

    [–]swiftlyslowfast 36 ポイント37 ポイント  (6子コメント)

    Yeah, giving all the money to the rich is not conservative, or is it..?..

    Either way, how are they getting away with trickle down politics again? Fuck, not even ten years ago it broke the world economy yet we are doing it again now. . . .hurrah. . . .shoot me now. . .

    You forget who suffered during that crisis: it was the lower middle class who lost their homes. It was the retired pensioners who lost their savings funds. It was the middle class who lost their jobs.

    The rich got bailed out and used their vast wealth to buy undervalued stock/goods/houses/properties to later sell for a massive profit and, in turn, become richer.

    They stand to profit massively from another crisis. When there are no real consequences, they will do everything possible to profit. In antiquity, these people would have had their heads mounted on spikes. In the modern era, the public is too pacified to fight and too addicted to capitalism and consumerism to consider even jailing the folks whose greed creates these crises.

    [–]Trump_For_Janitor 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (2子コメント)

    That's been the plan the whole time. Trump doesn't care about leading a country... he wants to crash the country. That way all his friends can buy stuff up cheap. The wall? I bet he invests in whomever would have built it. Bring home coal jobs and twisting law to allow pollution, bet he invests in coal. Making people not have access to healthcare? Bet he invests in pharmasuticals (This doesn't make sense until you realize you can't really invest in "preventative care" and make money.) I personally think it's border line treason. He might not be HELPING another country directly, but purposefully crashing our nation should be considered "helping our enemies" and he should be hung until dead. He has American blood on his actions, he is actively trying to destroy the nation and cost more American blood, for the love of money. Hang him..... hang him high with a sign around his neck that says "Traitor". I am not endorcing vigilante justice, just true justice. Run him through court as if he was a nobody, give him his day in court and then hang him.... that day.... publically. People need to learn we will NOT tolorate someone killing Americans...... even Americans...

      I agree. Things that would completely align with conservative values are becoming "controversial" because Liberals want it too. It's become entirely Party related. My parents were very fond of an agency that they had booked with, then my conservative aunt told them that they should consider other companies since that one was "very liberal". My parents stoically nodded and were quick to change arrangements so they weren't helping support liberals.

      It's not about what a person does. It's not about what a policy states. It's about who that person "allies" with. As Paul Ryan said, it's about "staying in the family"

      Yeah, I was the same way. Around the time I was becoming an adult I started noticing that the party seemed to be getting stupider and more aggressively anti-intellectual. They stopped proposing ideas and just turned into the party of hate. Then somebody remarked that he didn't understand how people could vote against their own self-interest, and that's when it really clicked that Republicanism was a pack of lies.

        As of 20. May: 41 confirmed of 558 key positions. That is (of course) far worse than any president the last 20 years.

        [–]AndrewWaldron 12 ポイント13 ポイント  (0子コメント)

        And how many of those confirmed were contentious?

              Republicans have had the majority in the House for the past six years (hence Obamacare instead of the much less fucked up ACA), and the majority in the Senate for the past two years. They are impotent, hateful, and live to blame anyone but themselves for their complete lack of progress towards ANY improvement of this country. Not so patriotic after all...

              Republicans have done this for years when their shitty policies blow up in their faces or don't work out the way the narrative says they were supposed to. There could be a single lone Democrat in both the House and Senate and they'd still bitch about obstructionist liberals because they need someone else to blame.

              And somehow he says it all because the republicans believe him. He might shut up if every slimey word out of his mouth was not a made up thing or blame shifting that his base eats up. How can they believe him, he is so obviously a con man and lies every other word. They used to say you have to read between the lines of what he says but now that does not even work he is so incoherent. How are they so gullible to believe fox and Trump I will never, ever, understand. In junior high I could see through his bullshit and full grown adults can not somehow. I can understand the greedy and the racist- disagree with but know why support him- the fools who actually believe what he says I can not understand how they think. The lack of reality is frightening.

                  I feel like a lot of what the right misses is that people who supported Obama, for the most part, acknowledge that he wasn't perfect. We criticize Trump, and they respond by pointing at Obama's mistakes saying "SEE WHAT HE DID?!?!?" as if we didn't already know.

                  He wasn't perfect. But compared to what came before and after, he was a step in the right direction.

                  Doesn't matter what subreddit I'm on, I've seen both myself and other people swarmed by brigades of them scouring these subreddits for things to downvote.

                  To be fair, he was the only president of most Redditor's lifetimes. Most Redditors, myself included, are 20-somethings and were in high school when Bush left office. High schoolers don't exactly have good critical analysis abilities and just parrot whatever views their parents have.

                            Our current President can barely speak in coherent sentences. He loses his train of thought halfway through a paragraph. He makes Tweets that are internally contradictory, much less consistent with his message from day to day. And people look at him and say how wonderful he is. What is wonderful about someone who can't even speak coherently?

                                  Gaslighting

                                  Gaslighting is a form of manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or members of a group, hoping to make targets question their own memory, perception, and sanity. Using persistent denial, misdirection, contradiction, and lying, it attempts to destabilize the target and delegitimize the target's belief.

                                  Instances may range from the denial by an abuser that previous abusive incidents ever occurred up to the staging of bizarre events by the abuser with the intention of disorienting the victim. The term owes its origin to a 1938 play Gas Light and its 1944 film adaptation. It has been used in clinical and research literature, as well as in political commentary.

I think both parties are reaching their expiration date and this last election is a perfect example of why. We need new values for a new age.

                                      As a symbol to billionaires, corrupt politicians, and white nationalists it would be very important. However, Pence as president is quite possibly worse, because he's a competent person. Evil and terrible, but competent. He'd be able to convince other GOP members to pass the kind of shitty legislation that Trump wants, but is unable to because he's got no concept of how to politick.

                                      He already has influence if that's what you're worried about.

                                      Depending on the manner of Trump's departure, it could definitely question Pence's legitimacy to lead even if he isn't directly linked to anything. I think the case will be made for sure, and it could lead to quite a political crisis. Realistically I think the best shot is a 2018 massacre in every other branch, and force Pence/whoever into a lame duck presidency for the remainder of the term

                                            I totally get the VP taking over and finishing out the term in the case of an assassination or whatever, but in a case like this, Pence doesn't deserve to be President. Hell, even if Pence is taken down too and it went to Paul Ryan, that wouldn't be fair either.

                                            Limit the campaigning to like six weeks and then the winner finishes out the term.

                                                    Therefore, Democrats can obstruct most legislation when it reaches the Senate. Excepting budgetary bills and a few other things of course.

                                                      I think it's more important to note that the agenda being obstructed here is worth obstructing. When I see a meme like this, I think of how easily it could be compared to much of Obama's tenure, when even the basic functioning of government was impaired by Republicans trying their hardest to bring him down. Their refusal to even participate in ACA negotiations - when our health care system was leaving tens of millions uninsured, families and lives destroyed by medical debt and/or easily prevented exacerbations of illness - was the moment when the Republican party lost the ability to govern or put country over party in my book.

                                                      A minority party certainly has the ability to obstruct. We should always be willing and able to discuss the content of what's being fought, though, or fall victim to arguments like "the Republicans obstructed Obama, and now the Democrats are obstructing Trump, so it's basically the same thing", when the context makes that statement transparently false.
